Daylight Saving Time

[foszoe]

I thought there was an app on your desktop available to change the time if needed?
Does it have a usb cable?

Or maybe take it to the smartwatch store?

(Please film that. And use your Mr. Obvious voice)

They came with like a free phone charging cable. I kept all those..not all of the ends were compatible with my phone. Those I sold on ebay so I had some money saved for my next watch

Clock time is a man-made concept.

I looked back to the first year I experienced "spring forward" after leaving Indiana for the USAF (1986.) Sprung forward 27 April? That's a lot later than 10 March.

In in 2005 congress approved the extension and in 2009 they implemented the extended the DST period by about 4 weeks, when April 1 falls on Monday through Wednesday, these changes result in a DST period that is 5 weeks longer. So yes. It is noticeably different.


DST starts on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November

I am from Chicago subs and moved here about 6 years ago and I cannot fore life of me get used to this time. Everything on tv is off by an hour and messes with my head. Summer daylight until 10pm is causing me to go further insane. Then, for no reason, we all keep moving the clock back and forth, back and forth every year, back and forth……don’t blame me when I snap!

I understand your issue wiht TV. The Network feeds are based on TZ, So TV shows in Chicago and NYC/Indy air at teh same time, but in Chicago its, say, 9pm and NYC/Indy at 10pm. I grew up in CST and haven't really gotten used to ETZ TV. News at 11:00 pm makes me nuts.

And do not forget all the cyclists that want to ride on their roads they don’t pay for in the evening…

I would guess that 99% of adult cyclists own passenger cars or trucks and thus do pay gas tax. I seriously doubt that bicycles cause any measurable wear on the pavement.

There’s a thread for that.

You've about got me doubled over laughing now, and I don't even know how to tell you why it's so funny.

Maybe check out the last couple pages of this thread:

Why the hate for Cyclists?

If you can even try to empathize with cyclists for a second. a car has energy limited only by its fuel tank, to stop a cyclist is to demand a major energy expenditure to just get going again. Many states recognizing this have changed laws so stop signs mean yield to bicyclists. I have baffled...

You must be new here. Else you would know that bicyclists are truly he root of all evil. Many here believe that.

I thought you were supposed to be a quiet observer?

That post was a joke about the why the hate for cyclists threads. I agree with you but several will debate this vociferously with you there.

that's because more people like their workday such that there are more hours after they're done with their workday. So they changed it to fall back later, and spring forward earlier.

Or maybe we'll get DST all year round.

Daylight saving time 2024: Will Sunshine Protection Act make DST permanent?

There have been several attempts by Sen. Marco Rubio to make daylight saving time the year-round standard through the Sunshine Protection Act. However, the bill failed to get a vote in the House.
